JASMINE EEInfluencer Relations | Corp Comms | Analyst Relations | Customer AdvocacyChris has a great way of engaging and keeping the audience captivated. He conducted two LinkedIn sessions, one for our APAC management team and another for all APAC employees, and both received great feedback. Since then, I've definitely seen a positive change in the attitudes and behavior of our team members. Chris is definitely worth the investment.

Liliia ShamsutdinovaProject Manager, Citibank AP Account Management, MasterCard“Chris is a great marketing professional and it was my pleasure to work with him on PrimeTime Professional Women's Association marketing event. Chris was our guest speaker and delivered an amazing presentation on "Top 10 Tips on How to Use LinkedIn".
The event was a great success because of Chis' outstanding experience as a marketing consultant, deep knowledge and understanding of LinkedIn, his charisma and fantastic energy and passion for the topic. As organizers of the event, we received very positive feedback from attendees, who found Chris' presentation extremely useful and original.
I would highly recommend Chris both as a highly professional consultant for your business and charismatic speaker if you aim to host an outstanding marketing event.”
Jessie ZhangMarketing Enthusiast, MBA, Global Citizen: Think Globally, Act Locally driven by Research, Insights and Analytics“I met Chris at one of the marketing events organized by Prime Time (Business and Professional Women's Association in Singapore). Chris did a presentation on the topic of “Ten Top Tips on How to Use LinkedIn (and some for what not to do)”.
An interesting and useful topic delivered by a renowned influencer in the region had made the event a great success. I’ve done several LinkedIn training myself online and offline. However, the one delivered by Chris really had a direct and strong impact on my LinkedIn profile.
My rank for profile views moved up by 20-30% after applying several tips Chris shared, and has stayed in the top 10% among my nearly 1,000 connections. Chris has not only helped improve the LinkedIn profile of myself but also many others who attended his session. I’ve heard positive feedback from members I met at other Prime Time events. They said really enjoyed the event and spoke highly of Chris.”

Grace Loh FournierManager | Future Leaders Programme“Chris spoke for an event for the NTUC Future Leaders Series, and his content was spot-on, highly applicable, his delivery high octane and hugely entertaining.

CEO At Roberto&Co., WeChat Strategy Consultant,Head of PR and Sponsorship Dep at TEDx (Fuxing Park) Chapter“I have been talking to Chris for about 6 months online whose expertise on LinkedIn and massive contact list impressed me, ever since we always wanted him to speak at our event.
Our Joined event about WeChat and LinkedIn and how both can be integrated inspired not ony our audiences, but i did spot at least 6 mistakes that i made in my LinkedIn Profile that educated me to improve my profile, as he mentioned during his talk more than 50 views just in 2 hours on sunday morning....
If you ever need someone to manage/help or give professional recommendation on how to make your LinkedIn Profile look at its best, Chris is first and last person i could think of.”
John MooneyCEO of Coraggio | Our Vision: To build Australia’s Great Leadership Community.
“I have seen Chris inspire a room of CEO's on the benefits and wisdom of engaging on the LinkedIn platform. Coraggio and I have benefited from his service with greater engagement, new business leads and higher rankings on LInkedIn.
Chris understands what CEO's need from LinkedIn and how to make it happen for them. His infectious enthusiasm and positivity about the platform and what it can do for business leaders is born out of his own experience and that of working for CEO's across the world.
I would highly recommend that you speak with Chris about your LinkedIn marketing strategy!”
Melanie GrebloSpeaker, Thought Leader Purpose-Driven Business, Advisor, Entrepreneur, Company Director
“We recently hosted Chris in Sydney to speak at our event where the audience was predominantly CEOs and business owners. Chris gave an engaging, light but very useful presentation on the top tips for using LinkedIn for business.
Chris's knowledge of how to make LinkedIn work for businesses, and how to harness and leverage the platform is outstanding, I believe everyone in the room took away many valuable learnings. His presentation style is great, with a good dose of humour to illustrate some interesting points and tips.
I can highly recommend Chris to speak, and his services in helping businesses reap the potential of LinkedIn.”

Ron ViningBrand Experience Strategist | Chief Marketing Officer | Keynote Speaker & Masterclass Trainer“I have known Chris for many years and have shared the stage with him at several leading social and digital marketing events across Asia.

It is my pleasure to highly recommend Chris to you.”

His Black Marketing business wraps all this into a premium service for clients. If you'd like to bottle some of the Chris Reed effect, you can - by briefing Black Marketing who will make it happen for you!”

Colin JG MilesVice President, Global Sales & Marketing; and General Manager, APAC region at InternetQ PLC.“Chris has a reputation that precedes him, as a noted speaker and widely recognized "Power Profile" on LinkedIn - as well as being a regular blogger.
I thoroughly enjoyed working together with Chris at the 8byEight event - and had the inordinate benefit of hearing some profound insights into Social Media marketing and of course, gaining the mastery of LinkedIn!
Chris is highly articulate and tremendously well-focused on the tasks at hand - namely, building value for his growing list of top name clients. I wish him well in his future endeavors with Black Marketing!”
Sally FletcherDivisional Director Production at IQPC“I worked with Chris recently when he acted as Chairman of our Customer Experience Management Asia Summit. His knowledge and passion for social media clearly came through in his moderation style and he was extremely engaging as a round-table host.
As more and more companies in Asia understand the need to expand their social media reach, experts like Chris will be invaluable in helping them explore how to best adopt and utilise it for customer experience excellence.”
Scott BalesInnovation & Digital Executive“Chris is one of the true thought leaders.

Michael ParsonsMarketing Director APAC at Universum“From my role in running marketing themed events and having worked with Chris, it’s clear that he really is on the top of his game and is a leader among thought leaders in his field.
Chris’ huge wealth of experience on the client and agency side (inc CMO and his own specialist agency), paired with his lively and engaging (sometimes controversial) on-stage delivery, make him a standout name at any of the region’s leading think-tanks or events.
I would definitely recommend Chris as a first port of call for any company who wants to modernise their marketing strategy or move their brand forwards.”
Ben Heyhoe FlintCEO, Asia Sponsorship News (ASN)“I first discovered Chris by reading his incisive observations in industry media; observations that were far from some of the anodyne stuff that is often churned out. I don't know how I didn't come across him before given his almost ubiquitous presence in social media, blogging, speaking at conferences etc etc. A top guy in the industry…”
Rob FindlayDBS Bank, Next Bank“Chris came straight into a challenging situation armed with so much knowledge and experience, it really helped steer me down the right path. Added to that, he keeps an eye on the broader view, the strategic imperatives and the longer term. He has helped me shape a Linkedin and bigger social media approach that matches my objectives well. I recommend him to help you shape your Linkedin presence.”
Kartik ShethiaVice President APAC, Herman Miller“Chris was a wonderful host at our recently concluded Liveable Office Awards in Hong Kong.
His choice as EMCEE by the team concerned me initially due to his Mohawk, but I was happily surprised with his performance and presentation (and liked his Mohawk too). :)
He was humorous and precise. And it was entertaining and well conducted evening. And yes, I will be very happy to hire him again for our future events.”
Tor Mesoy“Leadership Coach and Consultant, Agnus Consulting“We enjoyed the focused training that Chris provided. Chris is knowledgeable, energetic and to the point. He inspired us to experiment with new approaches. Much appreciated.”
James Downton“Marketers usually promise to think out of the box, to help you make your service look remarkable in the eyes of the customer, and to differentiate your product from competitors. But they themselves are still in the box, unremarkable and undifferentiated.
Well, Chris clearly walks the talk on marketing – and you can see that just by looking at him. But his marketing prowess goes beyond the mohawk.
Chris also mixes the soft skills of creativity with the hard skills of running an effective business. Don't decide on engaging a marketer until and unless you've met Chris Reed.”
Tor Mesoy“Chris is an absolute beast in the field of LinkedIn marketing. His passion for helping more business professionals leverage the power of LinkedIn in my opinion is unrivalled, which makes him my go to source for B2B social strategy.
If you get the chance to work with Chris, or the team at Black Marketing, I'd highly recommend you grab the opportunity with both hands.”
Charles Edwards“I've known Chris for the past couple of years and subsequently became a client at Black Marketing. Chris is attends regular events at the different chambers of commerce in Singapore and has his own views on the impact of social selling and the benefits it can have on your business model.
I have found Chris to be well versed in his areas of expertise which has led to him being a successful businessman as well as a good friend.”
Rayana Pandey“Chris is a living example of how to pursue your passion and make a career out of it. We have worked together on a number of events as well as editorial pieces; his passion for marketing, and building personal brands, is unmissable.
In the market currently, Chris' expertise on LinkedIn is unparalleled. He is your go-to-person for all things LinkedIn.”
